Here is Nick's biography.
Nick Lachey was on summer break from
studying Sports Medicine at Miami University in Ohio when he got an invitation
from a high school friend to join
an up-and-coming vocal group in Los Angeles. Nick had always been torn
between his loves of sports and music, but it appeared that music would
win out this time. Shortly after joining Jeff in California, Nick realized
that his friend, Justin, and his brother, Drew, would fit perfectly in
the group. A few phone calls, several plane flights, and thousands of driving
miles later, the foursome was complete.
